THE SUSPECT

"Marshal Carter, my Uncle Mel never
killed Bart Mason!"

Carter pushed his prisoner through the
crowd to the jail door. "Sorry, Don, but
your uncle will have to stand trial," the
lawman said.

"A triall This town's ready to hong him
right now."

"And with good reason," snapped a by-
stander. "Didn't we find Mel's gun in the
alley near Bart's body?"

Mel Rivers spun around angrily, blazing.
"Bart was my partner for twenty years.
Why should I kill him?"

Carter spoke, "That mine you and Bart
discovered last month. With Bart dead the
mine's all yours."

Mel Rivers' tanned face turned gray. The
crowd looked on him v/ith stony faces.

Suddenly young Dan drew his guns.
"Stand back, all of you! Quick, Uncle Mel,
grab the marshal's gun and head forthe
canyon country. They'll never give you a
fair trial here."

"Thanks, boy," said Mel, A moment
later he was mounted and racing out of
town.

"You made it worse," commented Car-
ter, grimly. "Mel was only a suspect. Now
he's a fugitive, armed and dangerous. And
•veryone's sure he's guilty."

But they captured Mel Rivers that'very
afternoon and dragged him back to town.
His trial was held that next week.

Surprisingly enough things went well for
the accused. Mel's lawyer pointed out that
no one Sad seen him in town the night of
the killing, and that Mel had reported to
the sheriff that his gun had been stolen.
The jury was beginning to look doubtful
when young Dan stepped to the stand.
Hesitantly, Dan testified he'd seen Mel en-
ter the mine at the time of the shooting in
town. But his trembling voice convinced
everyone Don was covering up for his
uncle.

"Dan," said the prosecutor, "I think
you're lying to protect your uncle. If you
help to free a killer now, he may kill again.
Remember, you swore to tell the truth, the
whole truth."

Dan hung his head, thoughtfully. Then
looked straight at the prosecutor. "You're
right, sir. I've got to tell the truth, no matter
what! My uncle did kill old Bart. No, I didn't
see him do it, but I heard the shooting. I
ran into the alley. Bart was breathing his
last, He rallied long enough to tell me it
was Uncle Mel who did it. Then I ran
away!"

The courtroom was in an uproar as Dan
descended from the witness chair.

Suddenly Marshal Carter stood and
spoke to the judge. "Your honor, I'm afraid
I'll have to arrest Dan Rivers on suspicion
of murder."

"On what evidence?" said the judge in
surprise.

"The medical report showed that old
Bart died instantly. He couldn't have said
anything to Dan or anyone else."

"But why would I want to lie about a
thing like that?" yelled Dan.

"When Bart died the gold mine went to
your Uncle Mel. If Mel is executed then you
inherit the mine. When you helped your
uncle escape yoy. were hoping we'd kill
him. When that didn't work you made up
this bald-faced lie."

With a howl of rage Dan charged
through the crowd but the marshal's gun
stopped him, "Stick around son, this trial
is over, but there's going to be another
